GHQ Review

This place has wow factor written all over it

Venue Review by mkp | 07 Apr 2007

Take the time to savour the experience. GHQ is not just nice, it's beautiful; the layout is gorgeous. Designed by the company responsible for the Met Bar in London, United Designers, it has white leather seats, black and white cushions and beds surrounded by black fringes. This place has wow factor written all over it. Free to get in between 5 and 11pm with a dress code (no jeans or trainers), drinks are reasonably priced with some £2 drinks deals thrown in too for good measure. There are three spaces inside (bar, chill out, and dance floor), and caves with a canopied seating area outside for the smokers - it seems they really have thought of everything. And long may it continue! Aimed at primarily the young professional market, this place has something for everyone: even your straight friends will appreciate it.

GHQ, 4 Picardy Place, Edinburgh
Open 5pm - 3am seven days a week, prices vary.
